No hard disk activity
Blue On Identify active via command or button.
System Identification
Off Off No Identification.
Notes:
1. Blink rate is ~1 Hz with at 50% duty cycle.
2. The amber status takes precedence over the green status. When the amber LED is on or blinking, the green
LED is off.
3. Also off when the system is powered off (S4/S5) or in a sleep state (S1).
4. The power LED sleep indication is maintained on standby by the chipset. If the system is powered down
without going through BIOS, the LED state in effect at the time of power off will be restored when the system
is powered on until the BIOS clears it. If the system is not powered down normally, it is possible that the
Power LED will be blinking at the same time that the system status LED is off due to a failure or
configuration change that prevents the BIOS from running.
The current limiting resistors for the power LED, the system fault LED, and the NIC LED’s are
located on the Intel
®
Server Board S5000PAL.
9.1.1 Power / Sleep LED
Table 55. SSI Power LED Operation
State Power Mode LED Description
Power Off Non-ACPI Off System power is off, and the BIOS has not initialized the chipset.
Power On Non-ACPI On System power is on, but the BIOS has not yet initialized the chipset.
S5 ACPI Off Mechanical is off, and the operating system has not saved any context
to the hard disk.
S4 ACPI Off Mechanical is off. The operating system has saved context to the hard
disk.
S3-S1 ACPI Slow blink 1 DC power is still on. The operating system has saved context and
gone into a level of low-power state.
S0 ACPI Steady on System and the operating system are up and running.
Notes:
1. Blink rate is ~ 1Hz with at 50% duty cycle.
